    He is such a gentleman too, I seen him at the town Hall in Sydney Australia, He gave me his plectrum and the hand towel he had been using on stage. Just an all round excellent musician, singer and song writer. A true gentleman..that was in the very early 90's I still have the towel the pick got mixed up with my own but I still use that brand and I have 1 that is so rounded off its unusable now I believe it is the plectrum he gave me, won't swear it but seems like it..

      I am 63 years old today and come from Germany. When I was backpacking through Asia in 1986 with my best friend (RIP brother🙏), I bought the Strong Persuader cassette by Robert Cray from a street vendor in Bangkok without ever having heard of him before. Since then, his fantastic music and very good lyrics have accompanied me through good times and bad (now via Spotify or TH-cam). Timeless and incredibly good music. Keep it up Robert!

    This guy here is one of the most phenomenal guitarist out there. He certainly has his own sound. I'm not sure it's blues in the true sense. It's Robert Cray and he is in his own world. As a guitarist myself I can listen to this guy play and sing for hours. Truly underrated.

      but there's definitely Blues elements in this
      as well as Jazz.

SRV and Robert were very close and did alot of touring together. In fact we're very fortunate that we didn't lose Robert that same day. They usually traveled together.

It's so great that young people like you are finding this stuff out at an early age. No, I don't want to go back to those days, but I do cherish them. He's still on my bucket list for shows. Look for an album called "Showdown" , by Collins , Copeland & Cray. You will slowly find that key, to open up that door to a wonderful world of blues!! Peace, my friend.✌♥️

    In the vibrant atmosphere of the 80s, my mother didn't miss any opportunity to have fun. And then came that fateful night when I was conceived between stacks of paper and empty bottles by Robert Clay. I am the son of a blues legend, and that's truly something special. I can only imagine how deep the music runs through my veins. It's in my DNA to carry on this musical legacy and write my own story. I will do my best to live out my passion for the blues and inspire the world with my music.

    I bought this album back in '86 when it first came out and haven't listened to it in a long time. Tell you what though, these songs sound just as good as they did back then. Absolutely timeless. I know some blues purists don't think Robert is gritty enough but I say balls to that. He's a great player, writes a great tune and has a great voice. Nowt more that one can ask for I think.

      I saw Stevie Ray, B.B. King and Robert Cray together at Rockefeller's, a small venue in Houston not long before Stevie Ray died in a plane crash. I also saw Ricky Nelson at the same venue and he died in a plane crash not long after I saw him, also... Crazy. Both were awsome concerts.
